It is never possible to totally control the environmental conditions on large installations such as that in material handling or logistics. Reliable sensing is key to ensuring the non-stop operation of these systems. Ambient light can cause conventional sensors to false trigger. Omron’s pulse synchronisation and light wavelength filters ensure ambient light never causes errors in detection.

High electromagnetic noise immunity

The IP69k test according to DIN 40 050 part 9 is intended to simulate high pressure / steam cleaning. During the test 14-16 l/min water at 80ºC is sprayed onto the sensor from different angles with 8000-10000 kPa. The sensor may not suffer any damaging effects from high pressure water in appearance and functionality.
